Abstract: This study presents an exploratory analysis of the scientific production on crowdfunding, covering the period from 2010 to 2023. Utilizing data collected from the SciVerse Scopus database and analyzed with the Bibliometrix package, the research described the temporal evolution of publications, identified the most cited articles, and explored research networks through "Clustering by Coupling." The results show a significant increase in the number of publications on crowdfunding, especially after 2015, reflecting growing academic interest and the relevance of this financing method. The analysis identified three main clusters: crowdfunding and investments, business development and capital markets, crowdsourcing decision-making, and empirical analysis. These findings highlight the diversity and interdisciplinary collaboration within the field. The study concludes that crowdfunding not only democratizes access to capital but also promotes innovation and the building of supportive communities, making it an essential tool for modern entrepreneurship.
